Fans of Hello Kitty will rejoice as Sanrio Hello Kitty Town in Puteri Harbour, Nusajaya, Johor has just added a new iconic attraction-- Hello Kitty in Oz (The Lost Chapter) in celebrating the 41st anniversary of Hello Kitty, the global icon this year.

I believe you have heard of this place, but if you haven't, it is actually the very first Sanrio Hello Kitty Town themed attraction in the world outside of Japan, which officially opened its doors since 2012.

Do you remember The Wonderful Wizard of Oz? This magical storyline is now adapted into our adventure, with Hello Kitty being our very Great Witch of Oz to save Oz from the total destruction due to the malfunction of Emerald City Machine.

Hello Kitty Town was there with us, being as excited as all of us over this new attraction.

The land of magic and mystery at Sanrio Hello Kitty Town is now filled with loads of Oz Wizards.

Now let's help the Great Witch to complete her magical quest alongside her brave heroes--

the Tin Man, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion.

It should read, "Lost Chapter" :P

Taking on a journey as a hero myself at the world of Oz, I was given The Great Wizardand exclusive limited edition Hello Kitty in OZ wizard hat. Cuteness overload!

I am totally in love with this place; Every nook and corner within the Hello Kitty In Oz is SO picture-worthy! Truly appreciate the elaborated efforts of the team who set up this wonderland that provides ample space for photo opportunities.

There are also various games for you to try on and save Oz from destruction.

Let me reveal a little bit about the first game: Wood Factory; Just chop off the logs!

.....but even the axe itself is super adorable; Can I bring it home? ❤

Corn House-- that's where you make your corn comes out tasty, bright and golden.

I think I shouldn't reveal too much of the behind-the-scenes,

you should come and check it out yourself!

At the end of the adventure, we are required to return the Great Witch toy to the check-out counter and see our result!

Ah, I lost in one of the challenges :( But they still reward me with a Hello Kitty postcard that marks my achievement.

"Oz World Alley"-- a special Hello Kitty in Oz retail shop
